It’s official: the wardrobe of your mums crazy youth is actually the in-thing. After a boho influx was presented on the runways, it seems that every fashionista is after her fair fix of crochet, retro florals and flares. But why limit this trend to the daytime? Pair down the colours, work your textures and add some statement gold to take the bohemian vibe to a whole new evening territory.

Those of you Instagram-mers will know that this week I have been holidaying away on 'Hamilton Island' in 'The Whitsundays'. Luxury is an understatement. This place is like paradise on steroids. No lies. I’ll be back tomorrow…. Don’t make me leave!! **Grabs onto apartment bed**
Jake and I decided to be posh totties for a night and went on a sunset dinner cruise. The menu was absolutely drool-worthy and we were total fatties and finished every single, seven-course, scrap of it. But what totally topped off the cruise was the breathtaking view of the sun slowly setting over 'The Whitsunday Islands' and the sparkling sea. Bliss.
For this tasty occasion I decided to take my love of all things hippy and give it a little eveningwear twist. This lace, flare top from 'Style Moi' is certainly a subtle nod to the seventies and I let the textures do the talking by keeping it completely monochrome. And what’s a night out without a bit of glitz? A gold-hued head chain is the perfect pairing of boho and glam and I added my oh-so-suave 'Daniel Wellington' watch for some extra sparkle.
How would you wear the boho trend for an evening out?
